Laura Rathe Fine Art (LRFA) presents "Mixing Media," a group exhibition celebrating texture through the use of diverse materials. Featuring Matt Devine, Anna Kruhelska, Greg Miller, Cecil Touchon, Punk Me Tender, Caprice Pierucci, and Paul Rousso, the exhibition showcases works ranging from polystyrene and collage to paper and metal to beyond. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, August 22nd, from 6-8 p.m. at the Colquitt gallery location.

Bringing together artists who approach material in distinct and innovative ways, "Mixing Media" highlights how medium itself can become both subject and language. For some, the work is rooted in the medium’s delicacy, density, or complexity, and in the ability to create something beautiful from materials as industrial as stainless steel. Texture adds depth and meaning, shifting subjects from two-dimensional to three-dimensional and into themes shaped by process, and perspective. At its core, "Mixing Media" is about experimentation, a celebration of curiosity in motion that comes from constantly exploring material and process.

The exhibition is on view through September 19th, 2026. For more information, please visit www.laurarathe.com.

Redbud Arts Center is proud to present "Shifting in Skin", an exhibition by Julia Marcucci Wood, a Houston-based visual artist who focuses on figurative realism within her compositions. As a fine artist, Julia has exhibited and taught within the Houston area. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art Education and Studio Drawing from Stephen F. Austin State University and a Master of Fine Arts in Studio Art from Houston Christian University.

ARTIST STATEMENT:

My work reflects the cyclical nature of the feminine experience, honoring imperfection, resilience, and the surrendering of transformation. As a reflection of my practice, I choose to highlight the originality that every feminine form presents. My practice explores the female experience as a vessel, symbolizing evolution, growth, and changes in time of its natural stages, susceptible to impressions.

My process in treating each composition is meditative and detailed, inviting the viewer to come close to form an intimate connection. By exploring the feminine symbol as a source of comfort and strength, I seek to cultivate connection and collective empowerment through shared experiences.

While working through the figure, my work brings together themes of identity and fragmentation with power and resilience that creates a platform for addressing personal and physical autonomy. In doing so, I hope to reframe the fragmented body in layers, holding memory, strength, and the transformation of change.

At the heart of Opera Gallery Houston is a curatorial vision grounded in scholarship, dialogue, and art historical context. The program brings together Modern and Post-War masterworks with leading contemporary artists, creating meaningful connections across generations.

The inaugural presentation reflects this approach, featuring works by Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Alexander Calder, Yayoi Kusama, Kehinde Wiley, Manolo Valdés, and Fernando Botero. Together, these works trace key developments in modern and contemporary art, from Impressionism and Surrealism to postwar abstraction and contemporary figuration.

The installation has recently been refreshed with a rotation of works, such as introducing new presentations by Xiao-Min Feng, Hermann Nitsch, and Kwang-Young Chun just to name a few. These additions extend the gallery’s focus on materiality, gesture, and transformation, bringing renewed emphasis to the evolving dialogue between historical and contemporary practices.

Together, the exhibition underscores a curatorial approach that values continuity and renewal, where each installation is understood as part of an ongoing conversation rather than a fixed presentation. It reflects Houston’s position as an international cultural city, shaped by exchange and defined by a broad, global perspective.

Artists on show at Opera Gallery currently: Anselm Reyle, Carlos Cruz-Diez, DASHA, Fernando Botero, Hermann Nitsch, Jean Dubuffet, Joan Miro, John Chamberlain, John Helton, Julien Rubat, Kwang-Young Chun, Manolo Valdés, Marc Chagall, Min-Jun Yue, Pablo Picasso, Pieter Obels, Ron Arad, Sung-Hee Cho, Xiao-Min Feng, Yayoi Kusama, and Yves Klein.

Foltz Fine Art is pleased to present "HomeGoods," a group exhibition examining the evolving relationship between contemporary art, design, and the spaces we inhabit. Bringing together artists whose practices blur the boundaries between sculpture and function, "HomeGoods" considers the home not merely as a backdrop for art, but as an active site for creativity, identity, and daily ritual.

Featuring works that reinterpret the visual and material language of domestic life, the exhibition transforms familiar forms into objects of artistic inquiry. Furniture, vessels, textiles, lighting, decorative objects, and other household elements become vehicles for experimentation, inviting viewers to reconsider the aesthetic and conceptual potential of the everyday. These works exist comfortably between utility and sculpture—designed to be lived with, displayed, and contemplated in equal measure.

Throughout the exhibition, artist-made zines, tablescapes, wearable works, and carefully curated curios contribute to an immersive environment that reflects the layered, evolving character of domestic interiors. Rather than presenting objects in isolation, "HomeGoods" embraces the ways collections are assembled over time, revealing how personal spaces become expressions of memory, taste, and lived experience.

As contemporary collecting increasingly embraces the intersection of fine art and design, "HomeGoods" highlights artists whose practices challenge traditional distinctions between functional objects and autonomous artworks. Each piece maintains a distinct artistic voice while offering new possibilities for how art can exist within everyday life. The exhibition celebrates craftsmanship, material innovation, and thoughtful design without sacrificing conceptual depth.

Designed to appeal to both seasoned collectors and those beginning to build collections, "HomeGoods" presents works that are approachable in scale and format while remaining ambitious in their ideas. By bringing together collectible design, sculptural objects, and functional artworks, the exhibition reflects a growing movement within contemporary art that values beauty, utility, and critical engagement as complementary rather than opposing qualities.

Laura Rathe Fine Art presents "World of Color," a group exhibition featuring Pablo Dona, Miriam Fitzgerald Juskova, Gian Garofalo and Lynn Sanders. The exhibition brings together three artists whose work reflects a sense of playfulness. Through curious and intuitive explorations of color, each artist engages with combinations that create a childlike sense of discovery. Their practices emerge from deeply personal spaces, including moments of memory, influence, and connection that draw them closer to early experiences. "World of Color" explores color as both a meaningful and nostalgic force, brought to life through Miriam’s intricately folded paper, Gian’s flowing stripes of pigmented resin, Pablo’s miniature figures swimming within teacups, and Lynn’s layered colorscapes.

The exhibition reception will be held Thursday, July 16, from 6–9 p.m. at the River Oaks District gallery (4444 Westheimer Rd.). For more information, please visit www.laurarathe.com.

Join Andrew Durham Gallery for an artist talk with Jill Bedgood on Saturday, July 11th, from 5-7 PM as she discusses the inspiration, process, and ideas behind the works featured in "Vestiges of Existence."

The gallery will host a reception with light bites and refreshments from 5-7 p.m. and the artist talk will begin at 5:30 p.m. "Vestiges of Existence" will remain on view through August 1.

"Vestiges of Existence" investigates the physical remnants of our lives—objects such as a worn bracelet or a handwritten letter—that communicate a life lived. These items may reference significant experiences, offering a sense of immortality. Through memory, a simple button may hold as much value as a precious ring, absent any monetary hierarchy. Possessions left behind carry both lineage and the weight of memory.

When injustices occur, the earth retains evidence, acting as a receptacle of memory—a repository and guardian of truth. Anomalies in the natural world, such as unusual land formations or irregular tree ring growth, signal disturbance and reveal hidden histories. In this way, nature becomes the only witness.

The memorialization of objects, whose stories are embedded within them, documents human presence and serves as a reminder of life’s transience. Bedgood’s work functions as a contemporary memento mori, creating visual poetry that reflects on transformation and impermanence.
